Scrooge (1970)
Lovely hand-drawn animation style and cute little story. Gotta enjoy these Pixar shorts.
Non-horrible way to revisit the Trolls world. The story is forgettable, but it has some fun trippy stuff going on.
Not at all good, but maybe not as horrible as it could have been. Get rid of the kid actor, though.
My nostalgia was not enough to prep me for how sensorially annoying and tacky this is. I guess these Rankin & Bass specials don’t do it for me like they used to. Nonetheless there’s still plenty of holiday charm and memorable moments. And it’s iconic. Can’t hate it.
What the hell is up with the elevators. Slight overall recommendation built entirely around Hugh Jackman’s charisma.
Perfectly charming animated short of Pluto chasing around Chip and Dale as Mickey decorates. A few striking moments and sense of inventive fun keep it delightful the whole way through.
Not as good as the original, with lots of filler, but still a lightweight watch. Plus I’m a sucker for good sibling stories.
